Show us a picture of your reloading bench

After my latest updates. A Hornady LNL, 366, and a 007 (not shown).

My LNL with Inline Fabrication UltraMount, Ergo roller handle, and LED lighting.



A Hornady (Pacific) 366 with my home made mount and shell catching tray.


Closeup of the fancy shell catcher.




Seems I have a thing for red.

Nice strong mount on the LnL! I have an ergo handle on my LCT, inlinefabrication has great products.

Looks like you have plenty of levels too!

Very neat and clean setup.

 

[Ronno]

Wow you can tell spring is almost here... nobody must be reloading or building a new bench! lol

Nice set up Beck. The Ultramount looks great! I think my next purchase needs to be a shotshell press, I am over due on that one.

Just finished my basement and had just cleaned out the storage area. I bought all the supplies new except for the nails in the nail gun (only used to join the legs) and the decking screws. Total for 2x4's and OSB was $24.71.

BTW, I "cut the corner" so that my entry/exit into the room wasn't obstructed by the edge of the bench. I'll get a picture of the setup now that it's in use a little later today.

Very cool! I used 4x4 posts for the legs of my bench -- I suppose two 2x4's woulda been just as fine.

I won't get into too many details, but 4x4s are slightly stronger than doubled 2x4s (the degree of difference depends upon the method of fastening), however they are a fair amount less costly and are far stronger than required for the task at hand.

Looks good, Just glue and screw on the next layer of bench top and you should be good. I cover mine with a 1/4 sheet of hard mansonite. Makes for easier cleanup and replaceable if needed.

Got hocked on the big red H this winter and bought two new presses powder dispenser and a line of new hornady dies! Mec 9000g not pictured.

She is still a work in progress. For instance, I will be redoing the peg board and installing a hard wired outlet hub (6 outlets) so I can keep the wires running to the back of the bench. As it stands now, the plan is to eventually top the OSB with a smooth counter surface and install a vise on the corner as well as install some shelves above the peg board. Also going to hang another shop lamp up above and install a ceiling mount double outlet.

Don't have anything bolted down because I'm not sure what's going to be most productive yet. Shelves are fully stocked. Every friend has told me I made it to pretty. But I don't have a history of destroying my tools or my workshops.

First time posting, saw this thread and i figured i had to. I started about 10 months ago so its really not much, but it works. Hopefully i will be moving soon though and that desk is not going to last another move, so i'll have to build something new!!

That is a sharp set up. It looks like the Taj Mahal compared to where I started.

This is mine, It has everything I need but not everything I want. I had to get rid of two of my presses because they were so warn out they wouldn't make good ammo anymore. I tried to clean house and neaten up.

I'm happy with what I have.

I'm not trying to be an ass but just offering constructive criticism.
Installing a couple of sheets of drywall would go a long way in producing a much better looking reloading area. Your total cost would have gone up by maybe $75.00 including a can of primer and a couple of hours worth of labor

 

[floydster]

thump, was thinking the same thing, would have made the area so much nicer

Hey, $75 is 1000 bullets. Certain choices have to be made at times. Sometimes aesthetics have to come in second.

I see a Hornady LnL AP Progressive, Hornady Auto Charge, a Thumler Model B, and 6 cans of One Shot.
Something tells me that an extra $75.00 wouldn't make the difference between buying regular food and eating KD for a week and if I had to I'd eat KD for a week and put the drywall up.
